) all talking about the same thing. But I think Alan is right when he says there are so many replies people don't mean not to respond it's just overwhelming for the recipient. I remember reading one post where a female had received 200 replies to a photo ad, try not to take it personally and be patient as I'm sure it will be worth it in the end. Quote by Kiss_Me
I think that this thread is one of many (I posted one a while back too

I wasn't going to say anything, as one day you will open your eyes and realise what utter tosh it is to be expected to plough through 100's of PM's - just to demonstrate good manners to a bunch of people you have never met and just don't know..... BUT...
something got the better of me (probably because I have just finished a 2 hour stint of answering PM's).
I set out once to answer every PM - even if just to say 'no thanks'.
Last week I had a moment of clarity - regardless of the 1000+ PM's I had previously sent replies to - I still found I had 1300+ PM's in my inbox (they had of course built up over a period of time). I decided that I had to bite the bullet and just delete the lot.
Now if as a result of doing that, some person I have never met thinks I am an ignorant bitch - so what? The alternative would have been to make replying to PM's a full-time job. I have a job already and I know without doubt answering PM's will not pay the salary I currently am rewarded with from my employer.
Since deleting all of the previous PM's and totally clearing my inbox at the begining of the week - I have had another 100+ arrive. I have managed to read, consider and reply to all of them (apart from 4 - which were so crap I decided to just delete).
Whilst I am at present back on top of my emails - should I ever find myself in a similar position as last week - I would do the same again.
Afterall - what is the point of answering all of your PM's if it is going to leave you with no time to actually FUCK!

secondly most replys i get are from people who i'm not even looking for, so if they can't be arsed to read what i'm after or if they do read it and choose to reply anyway why should i give them my time and reply?
